Thomas Lodise, Pharm.D., Ph.D.
- Ph.D. in Epidemiology, University at Albany
- Pharm.D., Temple University School of Pharmacy
Courses Taught at ACPHS
- Pharmacotherapy III (Infectious Diseases Module)
- Drug Information (study design and statistics)
Integrating his dual interests in research and patient care, Dr. Lodise’s current research focuses on the epidemiology and outcomes of bacterial infections, and his work explores the antibiotic exposure-response relationship among patients. His specific objectives are threefold: develop patient care strategies and antibiotic regimens that improve outcomes, reduce the likelihood of toxicity and minimize the emergence of antibiotic resistance.
Dr. Lodise is currently implementing epidemiologic and outcomes research proposals at both the Albany Medical Center and Stratton VA Medical Center. He also collaborates extensively with the Ordway Research Institute in Albany. He has received funding from both the pharmaceutical industry and competitive grant sources for many of his proposals. To date, he has published over 30 peer-reviewed articles in reputable scientific journals, including Clinical Infectious Diseases, Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, Chest and Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy.
